Röling Lecture: War, Peace and Human Rights – Michael O’Flaherty
On International Human Rights Day, Rick Lawson, chair of the National Human Rights Institute and professor of European Protection of Human Rights at Leiden University, will deliver the second annual Röling Lecture.
His lecture is titled: ‘Bulwark or Castle made of sand? Protecting human rights in a post-peace era’. His lecture promises to provide a sharp and expert view of current events and the relevance of human rights after peace and for peace.
The Röling Lecture is held annually, partly in connection with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (10 December 1948), and is named after Bernard Röling (1906-1985).
